Louis Tomlinson and Zara McDermott are taking their relationship to new heights—literally! The former One Direction star recently whisked Zara, the ex-Love Island contestant turned documentary maker, off to the stunning beaches of Costa Rica for a romantic getaway. While Louis focuses on recording his next album, he’s making sure to spend quality time with Zara in style.

Sources say Louis pulled out all the stops, booking first-class flights to fly Zara from London straight to Santa Teresa, a beautiful and peaceful coastal town. They’re staying in a private villa where they can relax away from the public eye. This spontaneous trip meant Zara skipped out on the TV BAFTAs, but insiders say she didn’t hesitate one bit—choosing time with Louis over the glitz and glam of the red carpet.

A source close to the couple shared, “Louis and Zara’s relationship is growing stronger by the day. He’s been in Costa Rica for a few weeks working on his album, and he wanted to share that experience with her and keep her close.”

This isn’t their first international trip together. Just a few weeks ago, Zara was in Malibu with Louis before they headed back to the UK. Back home, they’ve been spotted doing normal, everyday things—like a casual trip to Sainsbury’s—showing their romance is as grounded as it is glamorous.

Louis will be heading back to the UK soon for Soccer Aid at Old Trafford, but don’t expect to see Zara in the crowd. Since her ex, Sam Thompson, is also playing in the match, she’s choosing to support Louis from a distance to avoid any awkwardness.

From shopping runs in the UK to dreamy beach escapes in Costa Rica, Louis and Zara are quickly becoming one of entertainment’s most talked-about couples. They’re keeping their relationship low-key but strong, and fans can definitely expect to see more of this jet-setting duo—just maybe not courtside at Soccer Aid.
